As I am typing on my laptop: I am sitting on my micro-suede couch; watching my favorite show; in my beautiful home.....thinking about this past week/month in my life. I look back on many stresses and trying to relax.
Then I think....seriously?
What are my real worries?
Why do I stress and worry about the things in my life when people in India don't have clean water? There are some people in Haiti that are still slaves and people in Sudan are being murdered simply for believing in the One True God......What are my real worries?
I have a beautiful family & incredible friends. A wonderful husband; an amazing daughter who inspires me and challenges me everyday to be a better person (yes....a 2 1/2 year old...) I have a home, food to eat, a place to sleep and water to drink. I AM BLESSED.
Things in life may have gone different than what was planned. Getting turned down for something over and over, being told you are not good enough, or not having the money to do the things you wish to do in your life.....
It can make a person think .....'Why me, God?'
Why NOT me, God?
You have shown time and time again in my life (and I KNOW in yours too, dear friend) that there is a plan in all of this mess.
It may not be how I planned it out, but there is a plan.
And in the end it will be more amazing and spectacular than I could have ever dreamed of.
